As investment in electrification, grid modernization, renewable energy, advanced manufacturing, AI-driven infrastructure and critical infrastructure accelerates, one challenge cuts across every project: people. Organizations are competing for engineers, project managers, technical specialists and skilled trades while balancing domestic workforce development, apprenticeships and upskilling with the need to access global expertise. At the same time, AI is creating unprecedented demand for energy infrastructure, from data centers to power generation and transmission, placing additional strain on already constrained labor markets. Against a backdrop of geopolitical uncertainty, evolving immigration policies and increasingly complex supply chains, organizations must rethink how they attract, develop and deploy talent across borders. Join industry leaders as they explore how organizations are building resilient workforce strategies that enable project delivery, strengthen supply chains and support the next generation of energy and AI infrastructure. The discussion will examine talent shortages, workforce planning, skills development, global mobility and the practical solutions organizations are using to power the energy transition. We hope to see you there! Kindly RSVP by Wednesday, September 16 and email events@fragomen.com with any questions.
